Open Letter to the Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu.

Protocol,
I am pleased to write you today and to congratulate you on your victory as the Governor of our beloved Sunshine State. Sir, do accept my best hearty wishes and prayers for a wonderful and fulfilling tenure In office with great achievement for the development of a new Ondo State.

I am writing as a Sustainable Development Goals Champions, one out of the successful 400 SDGs/NYSC Champions that was commissioned to carry out the 17 SDGs within Nigerian community by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Sustainable Development Goals (OSSAP-SDGs) and the NYSC Director General, Brig. General S. Z. Kazaure.

Your Excellency, It worthy of note, that you are a proud visitor to one of the Best State University in Nigeria, the University that houses the most well organized, cultured and law abiding Students in Nigeria. Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo State houses the most compelling Senate Building in any Nigerian University. Your Excellency, AAUA students are not only cultured and well organized, they have become a force to reckon with within the academics, sporting and entrepreneurial circle of activities in Nigeria. Thanks to the past governors efforts, the past and present Vice Chancellors, Academics and Non Academics Staff, the Students' Union bodies and the entire students of AAUA for their efforts geared towards making it an enviable institution.

Your Excellency, AAUA produces outstanding Law graduates in Nigeria. She produces athletes for the nation and a lot of award winning Alumni in various fields which include the most recent SDGs Champions, whereby AAUA produces 7 out of the 400 NYSC/SDGs Champions across Nigeria.

Your Excellency, God has brought you into power in a time like this when SDGs is very paramount to the present administration of our ever gallant President, Muhammadu Buhari, as great Nigerian and a lover of great minds and sound education, may I inform your Excellency, that Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo State, where I happened to be an Alumnus and a former Students Union President of the University and its host community needs your urgent attention in regards to implementing the SDGs agenda.

Your Excellency, out of the 17 SDGs that the 400 SDGs Champions have been charged to take action on, AAUA and its host community is seriously been challenged with 2 of them, which includes:
* Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation.
* Goal 7 : Availability of affordable, reliable Power Supply (Energy)
Your Excellency, the University and its host community in a "Change and Act A New" era needs your urgent attention on the Goals 6-7 of the SDGs, which on behalf of the Students of Adekunle Ajasin University and its host community can be rest assured on your quick intervention.

Sir, having gone to many universities in Nigeria, and having seen the differences between AAUA and others, I must given kudos to the Students of AAUA to have been successful despite the unavailability of the Goals 6-7, yet AAUA students still went on to make a good name for themselves and for the Info State owned University of great reputation, which according to Jamb became the second most sought State owned university in South West.

Sir, with the great efforts of the Prof Igbekele Ajibefun led administration and the increase in the population of the Students of AAUA as a result of the new faculty of Agriculture, which as a result will have more effect on the little or no water supply in the host community and absolute lack of power in the community, I therefore ask that state government come to the aid of the students of Adekunle Ajasin University and its host community by introducing "water and light for all project" by supporting the University with internal means of generating of electricity and less dependant on the use of generation, which also have effect on our climate. Also, drilling of boreholes across the nooks and crannies of the host community and to see into why Akungba Akoko Is in total darkness for the past years.

Your Excellency, I am more than confident that this request will be given urgent attention, as I have the assurance of your special love for AAUA and it's host community.

Thanks.
